The high-end and connected night light 🙂

 

Why put a night-light on the kids?

Just as you needed reassurance with the best baby monitors when your newborn baby arrived, he also needs to feel comfortable and safe in his room. Like the cuddly toy and the pacifier, the night light is a reassuring factor for our little ones. Even if they are not afraid of the dark, it is important to create an atmosphere of trust and well-being in the nursery. A night light allows the room to be bathed in a soft light all night long, to comfort the little ones and avoid panicky night-time awakenings. As a parent, it also allows you to take a look at your cherub without having to turn on the light.

 

Which night light to choose?

There are many different models of nightlights, with different features, to choose carefully according to your needs.

You can opt for a small, simple LED night light that can be placed anywhere in the room.

The nomadic nightlight is very practical to be taken everywhere with you. Cordless and rechargeable, it will follow your little one for all her nights.

The wall-mounted pilot light is fixed and connected to a power outlet. Encourage an outlet where your toddler can’t reach to avoid danger. Ideal if your little one stays in his own room.

The wall-mounted nightlight option allows you to illuminate, but also to capture baby’s attention with various images: favourite characters, stars, shapes, colours, enough to create a fairy-tale atmosphere for a sleep full of dreams.

For children from 0 to 4 years old, the musical night light is a very good choice! It illuminates and diffuses soft melodies and lullabies to accompany the child as he falls asleep.

For those who are more connected, the automatic night light detects when it gets dark and turns on automatically. Conversely, it turns itself off at daybreak or if you turn on the light.

Soft nightlight – JouanĂ©s

In this super mimi box, you will find a rabbit-shaped LED night light, accompanied by a toy of the same shape in a smaller size to amuse your toddler. We love its design which adds a soft touch to the room with its soft blue light. Transportable everywhere, it has an autonomy of 30 hours for its 3 built-in LED lamps, and is rechargeable thanks to the cable provided. The intensity of this night light can be adjusted by means of its touch sensor. Just tap it to increase or decrease the brightness.
